Contents:

Beginnings -- High priests of the Persian period -- High priests in the early Hellenistic period -- The Hasmonean high priests (152/37 BCE) -- The high priests in the Herodian age (37 BCE to 70 CE).

Review: "Beginning late in the Old Testament period and continuing for the next six hundred years, the Jewish high priests were often the most important members of Jewish society. They not only possessed religious authority but also exercised political control. This book gathers and assesses the surviving evidence about each of the fifty-one men who served as high priest from about 515 BCE until approximately 70 CE when the temple in Jerusalem was destroyed."--Jacket.
